I do not care what level I am working, but if the Division 1 level came calling, I am working the Division 1 game six days a week and twice on Sunday. And if an assignor cannot deal with that, then I do not need to work for them. The key is being honest. I would only think that would be a problem if you tried to decieve the people involved or worked a similar level.

Reminds me this year I had a jr high date coming up and an assignor called with a good varsity game(Hey, they're all good) for that day. I called jr high assignor who I'm friendly with and he was a little put out. I was shocked. It was a week in advance, and I had a sub lined up. Most guys would say, have fun.
